63B: Light-Wheel Vehicle Mechanic

Major Duties: The light-wheel vehicle mechanic supervises and performs unit maintenance and recovery operations on gasoline and diesel fueled light-wheel vehicles (prime movers designated as 5 ton or less and their associated trailers), and associated items; supervises unit maintenance and recovery operations on track and heavy-wheel vehicles, and on material handling equipment (MHE).

This cache was placed on our son, Jon's, 21st birthday. He is currently serving as a Private First Class soldier in the United States Army. This is what his M.O.S (Military Occupation Specialties, in other words, job) is. This is a tribute to him.

This should be a simple 2 stage multi. When you arrive at the posted coordinates, look for the # above the door. (It will be the door of the military branch that is mentioned above.)

For the coordinates to stage 2, take that # and subtract 1118. The answer will give you the last 3 digits of the North coords. N28 19.??? Take that same # (that you found above the door) and subtract 1709 to get the last 3 digits of the West coords. W080 43.???

The coords seemed to bounce around near ground zero. Use the hint if necessary to narrow your search.

You are looking for a micro. Bring your own pen and possibly a tool to help retrieve the log. Please do not destroy any vegetation while looking for this cache. There is no need to remove the container.

If you happen to encounter any military service personnel, please remember to thank them for their service.
